Gascade has taken a significant step in the conversion of its German pipeline network for hydrogen transport by commencing the filling of the initial segment. This initiative is part of the Flow project, which aims to repurpose 400 kilometers of existing infrastructure into a hydrogen transport system by 2025. The project involves converting a former natural gas pipeline into a hydrogen pipeline with a diameter of 1.4 meters, capable of transporting up to 20 gigawatts. This conversion will enable the transportation of hydrogen produced both offshore and onshore in northern Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania to southern Germany. Christoph von dem Bussche, the managing director of Gascade, expressed pride in initiating the commissioning of large-scale hydrogen pipelines in Germany, emphasizing the company's commitment to innovation and the hydrogen economy. Additionally, SEFE's recent agreement with ACWA Power for green hydrogen supply will further enhance Gascade's role in the hydrogen value chain, solidifying its position in the market. The developments in repurposing the pipeline network and securing hydrogen supply agreements reflect a positive outlook for the hydrogen industry and signal progress towards a sustainable energy future.
